Started because we were told not to comment in the entry thread.

I can stay silent no longer. Even though some of the usual suspects will still be honing their winning entries at midnight on the 27th. Its terrific stuff so far.  Especially loving the geese and I just had to  =D>  =D> the medieval muslims.   So that's my 2028 project sorted! (unless the macedonians appear first)

The standard is incredibly high. I don't know how you do it chaps.

And who would risk voting against the army of God?

Ta very much. I thought they'd be something a little different and they're REALLY nice models that probably not too many people have noticed.

My immediate thought was "At last, an army with camel coloured camels".
It's an excellent display.

Indeed.
 
Any of our forum gurus or the army owner care to recommend 10mm camel painting techniques with vallejo/army painter/whatever codes ?  :-/  Like horses they have multiple tones and off whitey bits.  You have until 2029 to reply.  :D

Submitted some items for the competition, a lot of fantastic entries this year (like always). Hoping to paint a few more and photograph them before the deadline, good luck to everyone!

X_X  X_X Haha! Oh brother, I guess as an American that "blue and grey" just seemed like a such a natural thing to write while I was making the post even if it was wrong.   ;D  ;D

Well I think I've managed to upload my athenian Hoplites after a bit of faffing about with imgur😁 my first attempt at painting 10mm figures and I have to say I was very impressed, great detail and almost no flash. So now it's 🤞 😂

I was just looking at your hoplites, smashing work. Love the vibrant colors, they really pop. Are they based for a specific set of rules?

Seconded. So that's 2031 sorted and 3rd Para have clearly been done at 28mm and shrunk by some magic process.

Thanks guys. I'm converting the great battles of history board game 'hoplite' into a miniatures game, hence the weird hex bases  ;D
